Harvesting and processing technology for producing edible alfalfa powder

Abstract

The invention belongs to a mechanical harvesting processing technology for husbandry, namely a harvesting and processing technology for producing high-quality ultra-micro edible alfalfa powder. In order to solve the problems of low nutritious value, high fiber content, pollution and mold caused by cutting, raking and turning, picking and chopping, and transport in a full-plant alfalfa harvesting and processing technology for producing high-quality alfalfa powder, and problems that nutrients are lost, fibers are coarse and large, the digestion rate is low and the product is only suitable to serve as a feed caused by high temperature processing and a common crushing method, the technology adopts a head cutting and non-landing harvesting and loading and transporting mode; and after alfalfas are cut, the heads of the alfalfas containing rich nutrients are cut off and pressed into square bundles, the square bundles are directly loaded and transported to a processing factory, and the heads of the alfalfas are subjected to solar low temperature drying, chopping, airflow ultra-micro low temperature crushing and microwave low temperature sterilization treatment to form the high-quality ultra-micro edible alfalfa powder which is pollution-free and mold-free, effectively maintains bioactivity and nutrients of fresh alfalfas, contains rich dietary fibers, has good water solubility and mouthfeel, is easy to digest and absorb, and has the fineness of 150-200 meshes.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a farming and animal husbandry mechanical harvesting process. The process adopts the harvesting and shipping method of cutting the head and not falling to the ground. After the alfalfa is mowed, the fresh and tender head with rich nutrition is cut off in the machine and pressed into a square bundle, and then It is directly loaded and transported to the processing plant. Finally, it is dried and chopped by solar energy at low temperature, pulverized by airflow ultra-low temperature and sterilized by microwave at low temperature. Dietary fiber, good water solubility, dispersibility, adsorption, good taste, easy to digest and absorb, fineness as high as 150-2000 mesh high-quality ultra-micro edible alfalfa powder. Background technique [0002] Alfalfa is a perennial leguminous herb with a long history of cultivation and a large planting area in the world. Alfalfa is rich in nutrients such as protein, carbohydrates, minerals and v...
